Hi friends,

Here is my code for tab view in my application.
My problem is when this activity starts the app force closes.
Please help me to sort out the issue

Java

package info.androidhive.slidingmenu.Tulip;

import info.androidhive.slidingmenu.Projects;
import android.app.TabActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TabHost;

@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
public class Tulip extends TabActivity{

static TabHost tabHost;
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_tulip);
    setTab();

}
public void setTab(){

    addTab("Overview", R.drawable.overview_tab, Projects.class);
    addTab("Location Map", R.drawable.locationmap_tab, Projects.class);
    addTab("Amenities", R.drawable.amenities_tab, Projects.class);
    addTab("Specifications", R.drawable.specifications_tab, Projects.class);
    addTab("Plans", R.drawable.plans_tab, Projects.class);
    addTab("Apartment Plans", R.drawable.apartment_plans, Projects.class);
    addTab("E-brochure", R.drawable.ebrochure_tab, Projects.class);
}
private void addTab(String labelId, int drawableId, Class<?> c)
{
    tabHost = getTabHost();
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, c);
    TabHost.TabSpec spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("tab" + labelId); 
    View tabIndicator = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.tab_indicator, getTabWidget(), false);
    ImageView icon = (ImageView) tabIndicator.findViewById(R.id.icon);
    icon.setImageResource(drawableId);

    spec.setIndicator(tabIndicator);
    spec.setContent(intent);
    tabHost.addTab(spec);
}

}

XML


android:id="@android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
>

    <FrameLayout
        android:id="@android:id/tabcontent"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        />

    <TabWidget
        android:id="@android:id/tabs"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:tabStripEnabled="false"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:layout_weight="0" />
</LinearLayout>

Could you post rule number 47? That's where it goes wrong.

Dear Kevin Berendsen,

Nevermind.

Replace the following:

tabHost = getTabHost();

With this:

final TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();

See if that works.

Remove this line as well, it's bad practice to me:

@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
